Day 20– July 19, 2005, Tuesday: Rugby and riding mowers

This is me, at my best, after Rugby today. It turns out that I've actually been playing 'footy', a minor variation of rugby.

More of Matt Rawlins today. Again, I wanted him just to keep talking. He talked a bit about how big God really is. Let me just say that God is big. It just boggles the mind. I just finished reading a book called “The Case for Creation” that talks a lot about how recent scientific discoveries (last 10 years) are basically proving that the universe is created and many scientists are actually turning to God as a result. I enjoyed reading it, but I’m an engineer so…

On a lighter note, I finally drove the riding lawn mower today. This is a good thing. So much easier. It was a nice break to not have to push the junky mower all afternoon. And it saved up a little energy for rugby. That’s right, every Tuesday night. Now I’m getting addicted. I’m kind of getting the hang of it. Mostly I just run as much as I possibly can in an hour so I get completely winded. I almost score a ‘tri’ today (that’s like a touchdown), but I got stopped in the end. But now my body is quite sore. I might just stick to one night a week. I also got kicked in the head (on accident) during the game. I was seeing stars for a few seconds, but it turned out to be ‘a minor flesh wound’

Another awesome sunset tonite.
